I'd look at the fuel filter.
What year, make, model, engine, and mileage?

Not familiar with your model. The fuel injector cleaner is a good idea. I would still replace the fuel filter if it is old.

When you turn the key to the on position do you hear the fuel pump buzz for a few seconds?

Good luck. :Wink:
